Deep Drawers

Deep drawers work great for storing cookware, just be sure to have enough space to set your pots and pans in one layer so they'll be easier to pull out. Roll-out cabinet drawers make it easy to retrieve large pots and pans and will work with a cabinet organizer for pots and pans.

Hang on the Wall

If you have wall space that isn't occupied by cupboards, try hanging your pots and pans on the wall.

Attach a board or metal railing to the wall and add some hooks. Choose hooks that allow the pots and pans to rest flat against the wall. Make sure your board is level with these tips.

Hang Inside Cabinets or Cupboards

Do you have enough space to hang pots in a kitchen cabinet or cupboard? You may have to remove shelves, but it can be worth it. Attach some hooks to the top of the cabinet and let the pans hang.

As for the lids, hang them inside the cabinet or cupboard door. You just need some plastic adhesive hooks that are spaced to fit each lid for a pots and pans rack cabinet.
